This wine was awesome! If you like the Chateau nuef du Pape style wines, this wine is the California version from the Santa Ynez valley, which is starting to become famous for its Rhone style California wines. This wine has a definite mocha, dark chocolate taste. I did not decant this wine, but it did get much better throughout the evening. I can't wait to try the cellar club version of this wine!
